Introduction
The ornamental wooded gardens and grounds at Carreglwyd are focused on an informal lake in front of the house. They largely retain a 19th-century layout but incorporate 18th-century elements. The parkland includes a silted up lake of ecological interest. The house is now a venue for events and conferences, and the grounds are open to the public in the spring.
